I remember smoking out with someone smoking for the first time- his lighter was giving him trouble and we all advised him all he needed was a special "flick of the wrist", which he then tried.

Avoid yellow lighters at all cost, they are evil and unuseable. any time a person uses a yellow something bad happens

That's funny. In my circles it was always white lighters that brought bad luck. Silly stoner superstitions.

This is exactly why I use white and yellow lighters: I'm not a superstitious dumbfuck but most people are, so no one ever steals my lighter!

Here is a pro-tip with using a Bic. You can use the shiny chrome part at the top as a mirror to show you exactly how big of a rip you are taking out of a chillum or any smoking device where you can't see the bowl while toking.

thanks for the tip, when taking hits out of my chillum I would always use my hand if it was dark out to see when it went out but this works 10x's better!

Don't toss a spent lighter. Leave it laying around on the table for bait. Lighter theft is a felony!

Nah the best stoner lighter is the clipper - solid flame like a bic but the ability to take out the flint for use as a poking down device makes it the clear champion

WHAT???

No way..the ideal lighter for a stoner is a clipper..

Its refillable, has a pokey!!, and they often come with a leaves on them..

bic is preferred, but that flame on your "OTHER" lighter is easily adjustable to the same size as the bic, or larger.  bic wins for sturdiness and reliability

I'm with everyone else on this, clipeprs are the way to go. Got a clipper with a design you really like? No problem, refill it if it runs out, replace the flint if it goes... fuck if the wheel breaks then buy a cheap-ass clipper and scavenge it for it's parts. Not to mention the legendary podge the clipper has, pop out the flint holder and viola a podge to poke your joints down with. Clippers for the win

They dont' sell clippers here, but bics get the job done fine. But for outdoor smoking zippos are unquestionably superior

Here in california, most of my friends and I smoke out of bongs, therefore the poker isn't really a necessary tool. I like the shape of the butt on bics for packing down bowls too, but that might just be because I'm used to it. I've never used a clipper but I'll look out for them next time I've misplaced my lighter in my high stupor.

Pretty sure zippos use the same fuel as bics so the chemicals are exactly the same. If anything the bics will be slightly toasting the plastic and giving off fumes. We're  talking tiny amounts, but it adds up.

FYI BIC lighters use butane gas; Zippos use Naphtha which is a fuel oil like kerosene or gasoline. They are not the same thing.

I have had many minny bics in my stoner days and for some reason they work the best and last alot longer then you would think! My fav was a little yellow one that we called the minny bitch and she did the job for a long long time.          Yeah make the stoner use word verification!

lighters? no thanks.  Grab a phedor or if you'd rather save $110 (like me) just get a hakko dash soldering iron from your local electronics shop.

Clippers have a removable flint that is perfect for packing down joints. Clippers have a flat edge that is perfect for scraping excess weed off of a table. Clippers are round and therefore perfectly bowl-shaped for packing down a bowl.
